Yea I had heard of that one too. Sounded like an interesting idea, but not all that enthused about ever trying it
To me there’s a line between a test of strength and endurance, and pointless self-inflicted torture. Did ya’ll know there’s a “haunted house” that no one has ever completed? A co-worker was telling me about it. You have to sign all these waivers and then they just basically torture the living shit out of you until you give up. Now, they can’t peel your fingernails off, but supposedly they feed you and make you sit in disgusting stuff, and even are allowed to like waterboard you towards the end
There’s also “manosphere” retreats put on by “TRT NPC” men who want to roleplay being an army drill Sargent. And at their retreats you can spend thousands of dollars to have them force you to crawl in the mud while they spray in you face with freezing cold water and call you a bitchy pussy for a week straight. And then they’ll give you some medal or a hatchet or some stupid trinket and call you a man because you willingly let them live out their drill Sargent torture fantasies for a week
For me, pass on all that shit. Tough Mudder and Spartan are about the limits of what I am down to pay money for to prove myself. That is unless something really awesome comes along that piques my interest
